The White House being torn apart by demolition machinery.
THIS IS CULTURAL APPROPRIATION!
DEMOLISHING THE WHITE HOUSE IS A PROUD PART OF CANADIAN HISTORY!
Ashlee and Erik Dahlberg of Lowell, Indiana, lost their 8-year-old son, Liam, to a vaccine-preventable disease in April. “I thought having the vaccines would protect our children,” Erik Dahlberg said. “Unfortunately, it did not because other kids, other adults, need to be vaccinated as well in order for it to work.” Liam was particularly vulnerable because he had severe asthma and allergies. He was vaccinated against Haemophilus influenzae type b, or Hib, but it caused his brain to swell and killed him less than two days after he complained of a headache. Hib is transmitted by respiratory droplets, often spread by coughs and sneezes. Doctors said Liam’s case likely stemmed from someone unvaccinated, Ashlee Dahlberg said. With two other children, the Dahlbergs worry about living in one of the many U.S. communities with low immunization rates. State statistics show one in five kindergartners in their county don’t meet vaccination requirements.

This is potentially a massive story. Did DOJ plan for survivors? Do they have sufficient evidence to prosecute? What is US jurisdiction to prosecute? Where will they go next? When is their court date? Will they be indicted? Held at Gitmo? Returned to Venezuela? Be Epsteined?

I am disabled. I have MEDICARE. I live on a very very limited budget in Boston, which has the healthcare I need but also is expensive as fuck.
Last night I went on to do the yearly « reconfirm your healthcare part d provider for the year »
This was the cheapest and nothing has changed on my end.

House of Representatives calendar
My oops on the title. I agree it's a horrible calendar & he's a bad person. I'm adding the calendar so people can see it. They're usually set in Dec. The yellow is when they're suppose to be in session. The House has gone out earlier before. You can see where they haven't been in since around 9/19.
